Sarah Palin's fame has pushed her into the world of action figures.
For about $30, you can have your own Palin doll in three versions. They are being sold by Herobuilders.com.
The dolls -- Action Figure, Super Action Figure and School Girl -- range in price from $27.95 to $29.95.
The School Girl emphasizes sexuality, with a plunging neckline, exposed midriff and a plaid mini-skirt. The Super Action Figure includes a holster strapped to her thigh.
The Republican vice-presidential nominee is just the latest political figure to join the Herobuilders.com roster of dolls. The Connecticut company also offers Beach Blanket Obama, a Larry "I am not gay" Craig action figure and Pez dispensers with the heads of Obama and John McCain.
